The incoming bit is surely trivial. But I think you misunderstood the
outgoing bit. The aim is not to 'have a copy of everything' ...
Let me show and example.
A user sends an official contract to another company. [EMAIL PROTECTED]
sends an e-mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Appropriate From: and
To: fields).
The mail server seeing the the mail comes from inside and not from the
registrator, puts the outgoing mail into the local mailbox for user
registrator.
User registrator downloads the mail and files it as 'compamy' does with
every mail be it e or snail. Doing this sends out the mail with the
appropriate file/registration code to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the
From: field containing the original [EMAIL PROTECTED]
For incoming mail, it's the good old copy system (one in [EMAIL PROTECTED]
and one in an archive box).
I hope this make things clearer ....
